<note>&hand; Most of the venous blood from the alimentary canal passes through it on its way back to the heart; and it secretes the bile, produces glycogen, and in other ways changes the blood which passes through it. In man it is situated immediately beneath the diaphragm and mainly on the right side. See <er>Bile</er>, <er>Digestive</er>, and <er>Glycogen</er>. The liver of invertebrate animals is usually made up of c\'91cal tubes, and differs materially, in form and function, from that of vertebrates.</note>

It has gill rakers, resembling whalebone, by means of which it separates small animals from the sea water.</cd> Called also <altname>basking shark</altname>, <altname>bone shark</altname>, <altname>hoemother</altname>, <altname>homer</altname>, and <altname>sailfish</altname><-- sometimes referred to as 'whale shark', but that name is more commonly used for the Rhincodon typus, which grows even larger -->. -- <col>Liver spots</col>, <cd>yellowish brown patches or spots of chloasma.</cd></cs>
